Luxury Custom Pool & Outdoor Living Services
From custom gunite pool design and construction to spas, outdoor kitchens, and full renovations — serving homeowners across Manvel, Friendswood, Pearland, Mont Belvieu, and the Greater Houston area.
Custom Pool Design & Construction
Every pool we build begins with a detailed on-site consultation and a fully rendered 3D design — so you can see exactly what your finished backyard will look like before a single shovel breaks ground. We build custom gunite pools in any shape or configuration, tailored to your property, architecture, and how you actually live. Our construction process is structured across 12 defined phases, with clear communication at every step.
- Advanced 3D design and rendering
- Custom shapes — freeform, geometric, and more
- Structural steel and gunite construction
- Premium tile, coping, and plaster selection
- Code-compliant plumbing and electrical
Covered Patios & Outdoor Kitchens
A well-designed outdoor living space extends your home into the backyard and makes the pool area usable year-round. We design and build covered patios, pergolas, and fully equipped outdoor kitchens — built-in grills, prep areas, refrigeration, and durable finishes engineered for the Texas climate. Every structure is designed to integrate with your home's architecture and your pool's layout.
- Attached and freestanding patio covers
- Built-in grills, sinks, and prep areas
- Outdoor refrigerators and kegerators
- Tongue-and-groove ceiling finishes
- Durable materials for Texas climate
Custom Spas & Water Features
A custom spa or water feature transforms a pool into a complete backyard environment. We design raised spillover spas, inline spas, sheer descents, scuppers, deck jets, and grottos — each integrated into the overall pool design rather than added as an afterthought. Every water feature is engineered for long-term performance and designed to complement the scale and style of your outdoor space.
- Raised spillover spas with travertine finishes
- Sheer descents, scuppers, and deck jets
- Custom grottos and weeping walls
- 360-degree spillover spa designs
- Integrated plumbing and equipment
Pool Renovations & Remodels
If your existing pool no longer reflects the quality of your home, we can transform it. We handle full pool renovations — replastering, tile and coping replacement, equipment modernization, structural repairs, and deck upgrades. Whether you need a targeted repair or a complete redesign of your backyard, we approach renovations with the same structured process as new construction.
- Replastering and resurfacing
- Tile and coping replacement
- Equipment upgrades and modernization
- Structural repairs
- Deck and surround renovation
Additional Outdoor Living Capabilities
Most of our projects incorporate several of these elements together. See the full list of available features or browse our project gallery to see how they come together.
Fire Features
Gas fire pits, fire bowls, and fire-and-water combinations add warmth and ambiance that extend your backyard's usability well beyond the summer months. We design fire features that integrate naturally with your pool and outdoor living space.
Pool Automation & Lighting
Control your pool, spa, lighting, and water features from a single app. We install professional automation systems and LED lighting packages that let you manage your entire backyard environment remotely — and set the right mood for any occasion.
Artificial Turf
Low-maintenance, high-quality artificial turf provides a clean, finished look around your pool and outdoor living area without the upkeep of natural grass. We install turf that holds up to the Texas heat and heavy foot traffic.
Putting Greens
A custom putting green is a natural complement to a premium outdoor environment. We design and install putting greens that integrate with your pool and patio layout, sized and shaped to fit your available space.
